New Version Messed up?
« on: February 12, 2008, 11:01:00 am »

Okay, so I got the new version... and I tried to edit it and add graphics.
Long story short, they didn't work ; my text was all blocky when I loaded the game. So after wondering why it was acting so lame for awhile, I decided " Whatever, I'll play without graphics... "
Deleted everything, re-downloaded DF ( latest version ) and installed, and ran the game. Windowed mode, everything is like... way too big. Same for full-screen mode. Also, the text is really effed up too. Halp?

This happened to Torak too, you should ask him if he fixed it.

And how, my kind sir, might I find this "Torak" person whom you address?

EDIT:
Nevermind, I found his thread here :
Bug lol

And I'm downloading a older driver version.
Thx for the help!

Just set your driver performance settings to "high quality" or something like that... worked for me when I got this problem.

I just installed an older version of my Driver, and it worked fine. What you did worked as well, I guess. Either way, atleast there's knowledge of how to fix this now.
